ACCOUNTABILITY: Judge denies Mass AG Healey’s request to postpone court appearance.

Kinkeade has demanded that Healey appear in his courtroom Tuesday for a deposition about her investigation into Exxon Mobil aimed at determining whether the $171-billion Texas-based corporation has deceived consumers and investors about the potential environmental hazards of fossil fuel.

Exxon Mobil has accused her of moving on the probe for political reasons, and Healey, who has vowed to fight the order, filed a petition with the Fifth Circuit appellate court asking it to intervene and toss out Kinkeade’s demands for her to appear — which she’s slammed as an “abuse of discretion.”

The appellate court has yet to respond to her request.

She’s lucky she’s not being charged with civil rights conspiracy.
